• Mark Twain Travel Quotes

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one’s lifetime.

To do something, say something, see something, before anybody else — these are the things that confer a pleasure compared with which other pleasures are tame and commonplace, other ecstasies cheap and trivial. Lifetimes of ecstasy crowded into a single moment.

It is the loveliest fleet of islands [ Hawaii ] that lies anchored in any ocean.

No alien land in all the world has any deep strong charm for me but that one [ Hawaii ], no other land could so longingly and so beseechingly haunt me, sleeping and waking, through half a lifetime, as that one has done. Other things leave me, but it abides; other things change, but it remains the same.   For me the balmy airs are always blowing, its summer seas flashing in the sun; the pulsing of its surfbeat is in my ear; I can see its garlanded crags, its leaping cascades, its plumy palms drowsing by the shore, its remote summits floating like islands above the cloud wrack; I can feel the spirit of its wildland solitudes, I can hear the splash of its brooks; in my nostrils still lives the breath of flowers that perished twenty years ago.

Eat interesting food. Dig some interesting people. Have an adventure. Be careful. Come back and you’re going to see your country differently, you’re going to see your president differently, no matter who it is. — Henry Rollins

Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in an office or mowing your lawn. Climb that damn mountain. — Jack Kerouac

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilization, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints. — Robert Louis Stevenson

Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. — Ray Bradbury

We leave something of ourselves behind when we leave a place. We stay there, even though we go away. And there are things in us that we can find again only by going back there. — Pascal Mercier

Once in a while it really hits people that they don’t have to experience the world in the way they have been told to. — Alan Keightley

Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you’ve never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground. — Judith Thurman

Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey. — Pat Conroy

No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet. — Patrick Rothfuss

It is always sad to leave a place to which one knows one will never return. Such are the melancolies du voyage: perhaps they are one of the most rewarding things about traveling. — Gustave Flaubert

The wish to travel seems to me characteristically human: the desire to move, to satisfy your curiosity or ease your fears, to change the circumstances of your life, to be a stranger, to make a friend, to experience an exotic landscape, to risk the unknown. — Paul Theroux

Although I deeply love oceans, deserts and other wild landscapes, it is only mountains that beckon me with that sort of painful magnetic pull to walk deeper and deeper into their beauty. They keep me continuously wanting to know more, feel more, see more. — Victoria Erickson

• Travel With Friends Quotes

A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles. — Tim Cahill

You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place. — Miriam Adeney

We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend. — Robert Louis Stevenson

• Adventure Travel Quotes

Adventure is worthwhile in itself. — Amelia Earhart

If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine; it is lethal. — Paulo Coelho

Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis. — Tim Cahill

Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. — John Muir

Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. — Edward Abbey

Once a journey is designed, equipped, and put in process, a new factor enters and takes over. A trip, a safari, an exploration, is an entity, different from all other journeys. It has personality, temperament, individuality, uniqueness. A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless.   We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us. Tour masters, schedules, reservations, brass-bound and inevitable, dash themselves to wreckage on the personality of the trip. Only when this is recognized can the blown-in-the glass bum relax and go along with it. Only then do the frustrations fall away. In this a journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it. — John Steinbeck

What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies. — Jack Kerouac

A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for. — J.A. Shedd

It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any. — Hugh Laurie

Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the Earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. — Mark Jenkins

The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. — Christopher McCandless

Adventure is allowing the unexpected to happen to you. Exploration is experiencing what you have not experienced before. How can there be any adventure, any exploration, if you let somebody else – above all, a travel bureau – arrange everything before-hand? — Richard Aldington

Be careful because Cambodia is the most dangerous place you will ever visit. You will fall in love with it, and eventually it will break your heart. — Joel Brinkley

• Solo Travel Quotes

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the most pleasant sensations in the world. — Freya Stark

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. — Unknown

I can’t think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything. Suddenly you are five years old again. You can’t read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can’t reliably cross a street without endangering your life. Your whole existence becomes a series of interesting guesses. — Bill Bryson

The true fruit of travel is perhaps the feeling of being nearly everywhere at home. — Freya Stark

When you’ve managed to stumble directly into the heart of the unknown – either through the misdirection of others, or better yet, through your own creative ineptitude – there is no one there to hold your hand or tell you what to do. In those bad lost moments, in the times when we are advised not to panic, we own the unknown, and the world belongs to us. The child within has full reign. Few of us are ever so free. — Tim Cahill

No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. — Lin Yutang

He travels the fastest who travels alone. — Rudyard Kipling

Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. — Lawrence Durrell

When the traveler goes alone he gets acquainted with himself. — Liberty Hyde Bailey

The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready. — Henry David Thoreau

I think one travels more usefully when they travel alone, because they reflect more. — Thomas Jefferson

Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold your life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time. — Hannah Arendt

Personally I like going places where I don’t speak the language, don’t know anybody, don’t know my way around and don’t have any delusions that I’m in control. Disoriented, even frightened, I feel alive, awake in ways I never am at home. — Michael Mewshaw

I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads. — Paulo Coelho

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me. The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose. — Walt Whitman

• Anthony Bourdain Travel Quotes

If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go.

Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks — on your body or on your heart — are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.

It’s an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu , for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about.   For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you’ve been and what’s happened. In the end, you’re just happy you were there — with your eyes open — and lived to see it.

Travel is about the gorgeous feeling of teetering in the unknown.

I’m a big believer in winging it. I’m a big believer that you’re never going to find the perfect city travel experience or the perfect meal without a constant willingness to experience a bad one. Letting the happy accident happen is what a lot of vacation itineraries miss, I think, and I’m always trying to push people to allow those things to happen rather than stick to some rigid itinerary.

Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? … I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once.

It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn.   Maybe that’s enlightenment enough – to know that there is no final resting place of the mind, no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.

I think food, culture, people and landscape are all absolutely inseparable.

Food is everything we are. It’s an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It’s inseparable from those from the get-go.

Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.

I wanted adventures. I wanted to go up the Nung river to the heart of darkness in Cambodia . I wanted to ride out into a desert on camelback, sand and dunes in every direction, eat whole roasted lamb with my fingers. I wanted to kick snow off my boots in a Mafiya nightclub in Russia. I wanted to play with automatic weapons in Phnom Penh, recapture the past in a small oyster village in France, step into a seedy neon-lit pulqueria in rural Mexico. I wanted to run roadblocks in the middle of the night, blowing past angry militia with a handful of hurled Marlboro packs, experience fear, excitement, wonder.   I wanted kicks – the kind of melodramatic thrills and chills I’d yearned for since childhood, the kind of adventure I’d found as a little boy in the pages of my Tintin comic books. I wanted to see the world – and I wanted the world to be just like the movies.

At this point I think my body is like an old car. Another dent ain’t gonna make a whole lot of difference. At best it’s a reminder that you’re still alive and lucky as hell. Another tattoo, another thing you did, another place you’ve been.

Without experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, and moribund.

If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food, it’s a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move.

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.

Family vacations are a great way to create memories that will last a lifetime.  I’m in my fifties and still have vivid memories of family vacations from my childhood.  Disney, Florida, Washington DC, and that summer my parents rented a beach house on Lake Michigan .

Family vacations are also a chance to bond with your family and learn more about each other by getting out of your routine.  These quotes all suggest that family vacations are more than just a trip.  They are an opportunity to create memories, learn, and grow together.

Traveling with your family is a chance to bond with your loved ones and learn more about each other.  For example, I know my brother struggled with carsickness throughout his childhood.  This experience helped me understand how to deal with my own son when he had serious carsickness issues on our family trip from Michigan to Florida.  I not only remembered how my mom helped my brother, but I wasn’t surprised to find it ran in the family.

Family vacations can be a lot of fun, but they can also be a lot of work.  There’s always the possibility of something going wrong, and that’s where the humor comes in.  That family vacation to Florida I mentioned earlier brought a bunch of catastrophes, only one of which was when my brother’s two front teeth broke off when a gust of wind caught the van’s back door and unexpectedly slammed it into his face.  Yikes!  Talk about putting a damper on a family vacation.

Of course, now we look back at this trip with a little humor around the whole situation, but at the moment, it was anything but funny.  Here are a few funny quotes about family vacations that capture the joy, the chaos, and the absurdity of these experiences:

Family road trips are a great way to create memories unique to your family dynamic.  They are also a chance to learn fun facts about each other, like who can sing the loudest in the car, who is most likely to throw up in the backseat, and who can sleep through just about anything in the car.

On a family trip to Florida, I learned how little my three sons cared about the details of their clothing when they all came out of their shared room wearing each other’s outfits.  And let me tell ya – no one was the same size in our group, so the site of them wearing mismatched and off-sized clothing will stick with me forever!

Family road trips allow us to create memories, learn, and grow together, or at least learn how to tolerate each other for long periods.  If you are looking for inspiration for your next family road trip, I encourage you to read these quotes and consider the possibilities, like the possibility of never wanting to go on another one again.

• “No road is long with good company.” – George Eliot, English novelist
• “A family road trip is a journey to the heart of what matters most – each other.” – Paul Theroux

Family travel memories are some of the most cherished memories we have.  They are the moments we look back on and smile, the moments that make us feel connected to our loved ones, and the moments that remind us of the simple joy of life.

I remember the old 8-track player that pumped out Roger Miller tunes on some of our road trips when I was a kid.  Roger Miller is on my playlist today just because of that memory.  Family travel memories are more than just about the destination.  They are about the journey, the people you are with, and the experiences you share.  They are the memories that make us who we are.

So next time you can travel with your family, make the most of it.  Slow down, savor the moments, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Making memories with your kids is one of the most important things you can do as a parent.  These memories will shape who they are as people and give them something to look back on fondly for years to come.  They will also provide you with something to look back on when your kids are all grown and have flown the nest, and you miss them with an unrelenting fierceness.

Here are a few quotes about making memories with your kids that capture the importance of these experiences:

• “Build traditions of family vacations and trips and outings.  These memories will never be forgotten by your children.” [sic] – Ezra Taft Benson

Not every family trip includes mom, dad, and 2.5 kiddos.  Family trips can include generations and extended family.  Our family trips often had an extra neighbor kid or two as my kids grew.  These trips allow you to see outside your routine and your own four walls.  They also provide the chance to learn about other people’s routines and habits.  Learning how other people function outside of your core family’s comfort is another bonus of traveling with people who don’t live under your roof.

Traveling the world with your family is truly a unique and amazing experience.  World travel offers an opportunity to see new places, learn about different cultures, and bond as a family through discussion and experience.

I spent time in Japan as an exchange student when I was young.  A cultural nuance in Japan is that eating soup is done with a loud slurp.  My parents came to visit while I lived there, and I’ll never forget the look on my dad’s face when I picked up my soup bowl and gave it a big ole slurp!  I had no idea how that little detail would affect him.  At home in the good ole US, I had been taught to eat soup quietly and with a spoon.  Picking up a bowl, using chopsticks, and slurping were all new to him!

This moment is a lifelong memory for both of us, and we have had many conversations about that moment over the years!  Here are a few quotes about traveling the world with your family that capture the joy and importance of these experiences:

• “Traveling with your family is the best way to learn about each other and the world around us.” – Unknown
• “The world is a beautiful place, and there is no better way to experience it than by traveling with your loved ones.” – Unknown

Traveling with family can be a challenging experience, but it is almost always rewarding!  Traveling together gives us a chance to see new places, learn about different cultures and bond as a family.

And vacation doesn’t have to be flashy or expensive.  Whether you are looking for a short weekend getaway or a longer holiday, family travel has endless possibilities.  You can visit a new city, explore the great outdoors, or even stay in your backyard.  No matter where you go, make the most of your time together and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Here are some bonus tips for when you plan your family trip!

Plan ahead: This will help you avoid stress and make the most of your time together.

Be flexible: Things don’t always go according to plan, so be prepared to adjust your itinerary.

Make time for each other: Traveling can be hectic, so make sure to set aside some time to relax and connect as a family.

Have fun!  Family travel is about making memories, so enjoy the journey, and don’t forget to laugh.

Exclusive: Navan is targeting an April 2025 IPO as it projects to end next year with around $1 billion in annual revenue

• Navan is a travel and expense platform backed by a16z that was last valued at $9.2 billion.
• The company is targeting an April 2025 IPO, according to a source with direct knowledge.
• It is projecting to end 2025 with ARR in the billion dollar range, according to the source.

Navan, a travel and expense platform last valued at $9.2 billion, is targeting an April 2025 initial public offering, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter not authorized to speak publicly. 

The startup wants another year to demonstrate to Wall Street that it is in a strong position to go public, as it is projecting to end 2025 with annual recurring revenue in the billion-dollar range and is already seeing 40% year-over-year growth in EBITA, according to the person.

A Navan spokeswoman declined to comment but the Palo Alto company announced Tuesday it is adding two executives to its leadership team who both have considerable experience taking companies public.

Amy Butte, who took both Sabre and the New York Stock Exchange public as its chief financial officer, will join Navan's board of directors. She will chair the audit committee, a crucial entity for companies preparing to IPO.

"Few can match Amy's hands-on experience guiding innovative companies through pivotal moments," Navan cofounder and CEO Ariel Cohen said in a statement, avoiding any direct mention of an IPO.

Meanwhile, Rich Liu, Navan's former chief revenue officer, will rejoin the company as CEO of Navan Travel. He most recently was Chief Business Officer at Everlaw and CRO at Lattice.

Navan, formerly known as TripActions, has been one of the most hotly anticipated IPOs in recent years. It has adjusted its plans numerous times as the IPO drought continued and could again postpone depending on how other companies fare in their market debuts.

Navan was previously planning an IPO this month after eyeing a 2023 listing, Business Insider reported last year.

The company has retained Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan Chase to handle the listing, according to the source. (Goldman's involvement was reported earlier by The Information. )

It has not been determined at what price Navan would go public. The company last raised at a $9.2 billion valuation in October of 2022 in a funding round led by Group 11 with participation from Lightspeed Venture Partners, Coatue Management, Zeev Ventures, and Andreessen Horowitz, according to PitchBook data.

Shares on secondary markets have been trading at a steep discount with recent sales valuing Navan at $4.5 billion, according to data from Caplight , a private market exchange. However, secondary sales do not usually indicate a company's ultimate listing price.

Butte joins a board that includes Ben Horowitz of A16z, Oren Zeev of Zeev Ventures, and Arif Janmohammed of Lightspeed Ventures as well as Clara Liang, Sandesh Patnam, and Ariel Cohen and Ilan Twig of Navan.

Navan says it saw a nearly 5x increase in revenue from 2021 to 2023 as business travel roared back after the Covid pandemic. Recently, the company has added generative AI optimization and Ava, an automated virtual assistant.

There are promising signs that the IPO winter is finally over. Reddit went public last month, though the stock is down from its opening price. Other companies in the IPO pipeline include Databricks, Epic Games, and Getir.

"'IPO' is not a dirty word anymore," said Cameron Lester, Co-Head of Technology, Media, and Telecom Investment Banking at Jefferies, speaking last week at the Jefferies Private Internet Conference. "People are thinking maybe they will go public."
